I love Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. However, this is South Island Pinot. It is not Marlborough Pinot. It says some is from foothills of Marlborough, and some from Central Otago. Typical Pinot nose, with earthiness. Past its prime. Not tannic enough to last more than a couple years past vintage year. Buy 2013 or 2014.

Drank alone, PnP. Red berry nose and quite fruity, red berry palate as well. Not real complex, but nicely balanced. Agree with the note below about it being a good everyday drinker. Enjoyable.
